More frequent scheduled App reloads on Qlik Sense SaaS: more than once per hour
Attachments
Challenge in Qlik Sense SaaS In Qlik Sense SaaS, we can only select 'hourly' as smallest refresh schedule for an App. Not every 30 minutes. Not every 10 minutes. See attached screenshot.
Description of idea To have the possibility to set the reload schedule for an app as "every X minutes".
This functionality was available in QlikView QMC. Not anymore in Qlik Sense SaaS.
Value proposition Some apps are looked at multiple times a day by end users, e.g. apps that display *today's* sale performance for online shops. An hourly refresh is not frequent enough to detect possible issues early, during the day. Or to do daily management activities. The users would require the sales data to flow in Qlik app every 30 minutes to have a good grip on their business.
Additional context If this feature would risk taking too much Cloud CPU/Memory, then the Qlik SaaS could 'assess' the resources required for the app reload first. If an app would reload very quickly, then Qlik SaaS should allow for a refresh schedule "every X minutes". If not, then the option would be greyed out and user first needs to optimize the app.
we tried the Qlik Automation to replace the functionality of reloading more frequently than an hour or cascading parallel or serial tasks but very quickly consumed all the available minutes we had for free to use automation and if we kept it up would have received an enormous bill from Qlik. This is not an acceptable replacement for the functionality in QlikView Publisher and Qlik Sense Enterprise
Agreed - I think there's a solid use case for separating simple chained reloads of Qlik apps from other workflows that consume Application Automation credits. Especially given chaining app reloads, binary loads, layered qvd creation stages etc. are part of Qlik's native best practice workflow.
